Almost forgot, when I complained about the measurements being untrue and was educated by the cs rep (I think her name was Brittiany) I also expressed my concern about the "falsely advertised factory taped seems" . I was told and I quote:" Sir, I'm looking at the description of the item you purchased right now and that info is not on there". This is what I copied from the ad:
Performance details:

When I stated that they really need to change the ad due to the falsehood of the measurements, I was told that they were awaiting for the product inspector to ok that and also that it was more involved than just changing the site due to the catalog and other things that need approved first. I then told her (Stephanie) that they should just pull the 16x16 out of their boxes and put them into the 12x12 boxes, state that the 16x16 are out of stock, and then run a special on 8.5x8.5 tarps on the net. There was nothing else said.

Actually i didn't realize (until reading back through this post) that the 12x12 are not 12x12 ...so i just placed an order for the 16x16 ... lets see if that works. I got the confirmation email (like last time stating that the 12x12 were in stock and all was good)... I'll have to see here in a few mins to check to see if i get the "Sold out" email.

It just gets worse for me! I thought I had this somewhat straightened out yesterday morning and was sold the "corrected" tarp. Got an email stating this:

Thank you for your order. When you placed your order our computer showed the item was in stock. However, when we tried to process your order our warehouse bin was empty.

Unfortunately, the merchandise below is sold out, and no longer available:

Needless to say, I'm very disappointed with sportsman's guide at the moment.
